These are great did them on the Braai “BBQ” Moroccan Lamb Chops

This is an easy, delicious recipe for Moroccan Grilled Lamb Chops with Moroccan spices, garlic and fresh herbs.
Select rib or loin lamb chops. Allow the meat to marinate overnight for tender, flavorful results.
Serves 4.

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs. (about 1 kg) lamb chops
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 or 3 cloves garlic, pressed
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground hot pepper or hot paprika (optional)

Preparation:

Wash the lamb chops and drain thoroughly.
In a large mixing bowl combine the herbs, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and spices. Add the lamb chops and mix well to coat the meat evenly.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the lamb chops for at least six hours, or overnight for best results.
Remove the lamb chops from the fridge, and heat your grill. Lightly oil the grill rack to prevent the meat from sticking. Cook the lamb chops for 5 to 8 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the cuts of meat. Be careful of flames from fat drippings, which can scorch the meat.
Serve the lamb chops warm with mashed potato or new baby potatoes boiled and drizzled with olive oil and a little lemon juice. A nice Greek salad also goes down well with this dish.

Holy Crap Pretty Kitty Cat

Ligers and tigons are hybrids, the offspring of the pairing of a lion and a tiger. Ligers have lion fathers and tiger mothers. They usually grow much larger than their parents, and female ligers (sometimes called ligresses) can sometimes have babies.

Ligers vary in appearance depending on how the genes interact and on which subspecies of lion and tiger are bred together. According to AP Gray in Mammalian Hybrids, the basic colour of lion/tiger hybrids is pale ochre to rust yellow-brown, more intensive than in the lion, but paler than in the tiger and with tiger striping. The mane of the males develops late and is shorter than that of a lion. In general, males grow sparse leonine manes and the facial ruff of a tiger. Males and females have spotted bellies and a striped back. They roar like lions and "chuff" like tigers. The females exhibit conflicting needs for lioness-like sisterhood and tigress-like solitude. Ligers have no scientific name, but Panthera leo X tigris has been posited.

The Big Hole or "Groot Gat" largest hand dug hole in the world

Kinda odd talking about Big Holes
--------------
A few people have asked me about the "Groot Gat" or big hole but then again Groot Gat can also mean big ass in Afrikaans. So I always begin by asking whether they talking about my ex or Kimberly the mine. The Big Hole which is also known by its other name, Kimberley Mine, in South Africa is the world’s largest hole which humans excavated. It was dug by 50.000 miners who were working in the diamond mine after first diamonds were found there in the 19th century. They dug an amazing amount of diamonds, precisely, 2720 kilograms of diamonds to be exact

Even more amazing is the that workers who worked there were not using any advanced tools or machines while thy were digging. The hole was dug between 1871 and 1914 when there weren’t any advanced machines for digging so, they literally dug this hole by hands using some very basic tools like picks and shovels. Using these basic tools workers managed to move an amazing 22 million tons of soil and rock

The Big Hole is about 215 meters deep and 463 meters wide. After the mine was abandoned because it became too dangerous for miners to dig further, the mine was shut down. However, the company De Beers Brothers who owned that mine continued with diamonds exploration by underground mining

After excavation was finished, this place started to fill with underground water and, as you can see from photos, it looks now like a lake. Water took about 20% (40 meters) of the depth of whole hole. Today there is a museum and some of the old town has been preserved and is quite charming
